nitroglycerin 's review for:
The Uninhabitable Earth: Life After Warming
by David Wallace-Wells
It’s hard to review a non-fiction book. Especially one as hard hitting as this one. “It is much worse than you think”.
Parts 1 & 2 dissect the direct problems and consequences of the climate crisis. Part 3 & 4 tries to point blame and make us blameless, and it kind of lost me.
This is an important book, if it only serves the purpose of terrorising the masses into believing that the crisis is real. That all the storms, wild fires, flooding, tropical disease advancements, wildlife extinctions etc are caused by our carbon emissions. It does make it feel like a lost cause, the tiny changes the individuals are making are so minute, that without the richest 10% cutting their emissions things won’t change.
Without going on a rant I’ll leave it there.
